- Remotes Release 3.0
- September, 1992
-
- Remotes is a companion package to Stuart and Terminal. It simplifies
- the management of Stuart and Terminal sessions. Remotes can launch
- local Stuart and Terminal sessions. However, its primary use is to
- establish sessions with remote hosts using the rlogin, telnet, and
- tn3270 protocols.
-
- The first production release of Remotes was in April, 1990, under NeXT
- System Release 1.0a. It has since been modified to run under NeXT
- System Releases 2.x and 3.0.
-
- Features
-
- The primary window is so tiny that you can hide it behind the dock.
- It consists of a single button that displays a pop-up list of your
- local and remote hosts. To launch a new Terminal or Stuart session,
- choose the desired item in the pop-up list.
-
- Each host configuration (e.g., auto-launch, window location, lines,
- columns, font, font size, protocol, login ID, etc) can be tailored
- individually.
-
- Just as you can auto-launch applications, Remotes can be configured to
- auto-launch Terminal and Stuart sessions. When you launch Remotes, it
- can automatically establish sessions with remote hosts. This is
- useful if you auto-launch Remotes from your dock. Simply logging in
- to your NeXT can establish sessions with remote hosts.
